Leftover wagyu picanha turned into jalapeño poppers.
Crispy, spicy, rich, and way too good to call “leftovers.”
Drop a 🔥 if leftovers should never be boring.

Rabbits in the hole in South Texas at with my friend 🔥
Barbacoa: a classic recipe and technique from Mexico and South Texas. Traditionally, it’s all about cooking meat underground, low and slow, for maximum flavor. It’s so much fun!

I gotta say, I love cooking in the pozo. Over the years, I’ve thrown in lambs, brisket, pig, and even a steer head. There’s something primal and magical about it every single time.

This time, we gave it a twist and went for barbacoa rabbits. 🐇🔥 Unlike the other cooks, rabbits cook fast. Just 2 hours in the pozo, and boom—juicy, tender perfection.
No overnight cooking this time, but still the same incredible vibes: a fire, good company, ci**rs, and a few drinks.
So, what do you think of these Barbacoa Rabbit Tacos—eat or pass?

Lomo wrapped in cloth, buried in embers,

**Throwback to October 2022.
This epic whole steer asador-style cook was part of the Grilling for Good event in Boerne, Texas — a charity cook supporting our first responders.

We planned this cook months in advance with my brother and friend , who built that incredible cross.
Cooking a whole steer this way was a life goal for me — one I’m proud, thankful, and humbled to have accomplished.
What’s a fire-cooking goal YOU still want to achieve?
